Many New Yorkers are asking themselves this question, especially lately. Even before COVID-19, people were leaving New York City in search of homes with more square footage, a yard, and a lower cost of living.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Portland is the most affordable West Coast city, and in my experience, people from Brooklyn are especially drawn to Portland. Brooklyn and Portland have a comparable vibe in many ways, and you can find the things that you love about Brooklyn in Portland.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

People in Brooklyn usually love to be in the middle of it all, and you can have that same city vibe in many of Portland\u2019s neighborhoods as well. Below, I\u2019ve highlighted the 2 Portland quadrants that are most comparable to living in Brooklyn. These Portland neighborhoods not only offer the homes and yards that Brooklynites crave, but there are destination restaurants, hip bars, rad indie coffee shops, grocery stores, trendy boutiques, and huge parks all easily within reach.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, before we show off Portland\u2019s affordable real estate, keep in mind that at the end of September 2020, Brooklyn\u2019s median sale price was at $835,000. At the end of September 2020, Portland\u2019s median home price was at\u00a0 $451,000.<\/span><\/p>\n

Colonial Heights Home – Sold for $825,000<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

This home is in Portland’s Colonial Heights neighborhood and kind of in the middle of it all. It’s equidistant between cool businesses in both Hawthorne and Division so you have easy access to the city amenities you love, but you’re also in a neighborhood filled with greenspace. I could imagine my clients from Brooklyn loving this home!<\/p>\n
